Thanks, it seens a good manual.
A scrypt based coin clone tutorial also works for a SHA256 coin?

Hello everyone!

(i'm not a native speaker of english, so 'forgive me' for any grammar mistakes i may commit)

I'm looking to create an exact clone of Bitcoin, no change in any parameters, just a copy and rename process (for educational purposes and testing).

However i suspect that some minimal necessary changes must be done in the code for functionality.
That some parameters must not be left as same as in the original coin, probably in blockchain configuration to avoid chains to intermingle (?), also some changes in ports (?)

I'm not a programmer, i'm a philosofy student with a project that requires empirical research with bitcoins.

So the main question is: 'If i wish to make a simple rename clone of Bitcoin, what are the other lines that must also be obligatory changed in the original code?'

...and, well... i also don't even know in the end how to compile the coin and launch it online... i'm completely lost.

The problem is i would like to create a swap for a new altcoin that's not on shapeshift list, is it possible to users insert new altcoins by working on the API code?

Seens a good tool, but i really want to understand the script behind it...

Hello, is it possible to program on a website the function of paying a certain amount of bitcoin in exchance to a amount of an altcoin and make the vendor/altcoin transaction automatic for the buyer? For example: a customer comes and pays 0,001 bitcoin for 2 altcoins, then those 2 altcoins are automaticaly transfered for the customer's alcoin wallet after the confirmation that the 0,001 bitcoin was paid to the site. Are there scrypts for something like this? I need help on testing this hypothesis, and as one can realize, i'm noob at programing. I wish to give dogecoins for those who can really teach me about this, i have plenty

thanks

Hello everyone!

I'm writing a paper about the cryptocurrency entrepreneurship
I have some doubts about the process of creating and publishing an altcoin

Supose someone creates an altcoin, what must be done to publish this new coin in the marketplaces such as 'Cryptsy' or 'YoBit' to trade your creation against bitcoins and other cryptocurrency? And how to publish your coin in lists such as 'Coinmarketcap' if it starts to become relevant?

Also, how to create a blockexplorer to your coin? The blockchain automatically emerges in the own creation of a coin, but how to access it (provide a link) to show to public?

Many thanks  

Thank you all 

Hello folks.

Sorry, this must be a very silly question, but it's a doubt i have for quite some time.

What is a Bitcoin when it's stored in my wallet? Is it a findable archive in my computer? or it is something more abstract?

Thank you.
